Libertarians Win 17% Of Their Races; McAlister Returns to Office

As the final results are rolling in, it seems that Libertarian Party candidates across the nation were winning races for local government positions. Historically, this is where Libertarians win the most, probably because there is less emphasis on party affiliation, which, in the world of politics is akin to religious identity.

Here in Ohio, we had Gahanna City Councilman John McAlister get re-elected to another term. John has been on the city council for about 6 years now, and has been a solid advocate for individual liberty, personal responsibility, and limited, non-wasteful government. Its nice to see him get returned to office. Congratulations John!
